About Penny & David

Although born in England and Ireland we have spent the last 30 years living in New Zealand. We have always loved travel and new challenges and have decided to spend a few years seeing more of Europe. We are reliable responsible non smokers.

Why we want to house sit

House sitting gives us the opportunity to visit new places, often in local communities off the usual tourist routes. We also get to meet new people and pets. As a newly retired Vet Nurse Penny cannot imagine a life without animals but travelling means we cannot have pets of our own at the moment. Pet sitting allows us to enjoy a furry cuddle each day.

Our experience

Penny is fully trained to deal with all aspects of pet care. She is happy to give any types of medication including injections. We both have police checks. As house owners ourselves who have rented out our own place we know how important it is that people respect and care for your property as well as your pets. We have many years experience maintaining houses and are happy to manage gardens or little jobs that may crop up. We will have our own car and are happy to use this on outings with your pet.

Penny and Dave are such great people to know and I feel lucky that we found them. They looked after our two elderly JR's with such love and care. Penny was the perfect person to look after Merlyn as he is diabetic and needs insulin injections which presented no problems to Penny with her veterinary nurse skills. They are excellent at house keeping and despite having some horrible weather to cope with cared with generous love and affection for our dogs. They are well organised people and very tidy it was a real pleasure to have them and hope that they will come again sometime.
